Capítulo 539: Hugging The Alluring Yin Lian

Nestled within the cool darkness of the cave, a tense silence settled between them. Yin Lian, her heart rate slowing to a normal rhythm, finally voiced her gratitude.

"Thank you, Wang Jian. You truly saved me today."

Wang Jian offered a wry smile. "It wouldn't have come to this if things had been different at your temple."

Yin Lian's smile faltered. "Different?" she echoed, a flicker of sadness in her eyes.

"Indeed," Wang Jian replied. "I couldn't help but notice the disparity between the Flame Lunar Devil Temple and the others. Despite you being the High Priestess, your power seems… limited."

The weight of his words sank in. Yin Lian sighed. The truth she was about to reveal wasn't a secret within the settlement, but it wasn't something openly discussed either.
